I think the problem is within my imageset/imageset.cfg file. Because I cannot find

img_icon_user_warn = icon_user_warn.gif*20*20

Therefore, I find img_icon_user because I cannot the full line.

Then, I pasted

 img_thankposts = thankposts.gif*20*20
    img_removethanks = removethanks.gif*20*20

after that line and edited the 20x20 to 20x40 (size of the image) and saved.

Refreshed the style/cache. Still the same dot.

Well, you don`t need to edit that 20*20 to 20*40. It is supposed to be half the height of the image cause of the hover effect.

But the button integration is a bit different on the absolution theme. After this find in the "viewtopic_body.html":

					<!-- IF postrow.U_QUOTE --><li class="quote-icon"><a href="{postrow.U_QUOTE}" title="{L_REPLY_WITH_QUOTE}"><span>{L_REPLY_WITH_QUOTE}</span></a></li><!-- ENDIF -->

You should add this:

<!-- IF  not postrow.S_FIRST_POST_ONLY or (not START and postrow.S_ROW_COUNT == 0) -->
	<!-- IF not postrow.S_POST_ANONYMOUS and postrow.S_FORUM_THANKS and S_USER_LOGGED_IN and not postrow.S_IS_OWN_POST and (not postrow.S_ALREADY_THANKED or postrow.S_REMOVE_THANKS) --><a class="controlbutton cb-thanks" href="{postrow.THANKS_LINK}" title="{postrow.THANK_ALT}{postrow.POST_AUTHOR}"><span>Thanks</span></a><!-- ENDIF -->					
					<!-- ENDIF -->

Then you should add this at the end of the colours.css file:

.cb-thanks {background: transparent url("./styles/absolution/theme/images/cb-thanks.png") no-repeat scroll top left;}

And finally, you should edit one of these pictures:

And edit the icon on it to whatever you like. Upload that image to "root/styles/absolution/theme/images" with the name "cb-thanks.png". The name of the picture is important too.

Then refresh the theme, template and the imageset too. If it doesn`t appear after a few refresh press CTRL+F5 to clear the style cookies in your browser.
Although you should know that you can only see that button if it is your topic if I`m right.
